All the ground wires should be tied together and a ground wire going to each ground screw on the switches. Unless it's a metal box it does not have to be grounded.....plastic is not conductive....
CEC part 1 2012
Can anyone tell me, how should light switches be grounded in plastic boxes, what I mean is, does the plastic box have to be grounded? or can the switch be grounded alone? As it applies to cec.
